BRISK II | UCP Knowledge Network

BRISK II

The project aims to carry out a new strategic long-term risk analysis in the Baltic Sea, as the previous one (BRISK) was finalised in 2012. The project will identify future risks due to changed conditions in the Baltic Sea and analyse them with respect to their causal relations. To the extent possible, these relations will be supported and calibrated by accident statistics or other evidence.

Description

The project's main objectives are:
1) Disaster Risk management support to develop the preparedness to match the changed risk pattern in Baltic Sea; and
2) Facilitating dialogue between Baltic Sea EU Member States on enhancing the common preparedness.

These will be achieved by: modification/application of earlier developed causal methods for modelling traffic, accidents, spills and environmental damage; updated input data; request to response authorities to propose scenarios for analysis; effectiveness and cost-efficiency of scenarios; as well as cooperation among Baltic Sea countries on method, input data and presentation of results facilitates a common culture of risk and prevention.
